Question Detail
How many words can be formed from the letters of the word "AFTER", so that the vowels never comes together.
- 48
- 52
- 72
- 120
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
We need to find the ways that vowels NEVER come together.
Vowels are A, E
Let the word be FTR(AE) having 4 words.
Total ways = 4! = 24
Vowels can have total ways 2! = 2
Number of ways having vowel together = 48
Total number of words using all letter = 5! = 120
Number of words having vowels never together = 120-48
= 72
